Gear Up Without Breaking the Bank!
Ski season is almost here! It really comes up on you fast. If you forgot to check out the best deals during the off-season and are scrambling at the last minute, we've got you covered. While buying gear when the season ends can work out well, you aren't too late. There are still deals to be found. Let's look at some of the best places to shop for affordable ski gear that won't break the bank.
Colorado Discount Skis
It's right there in the name of this one! Colorado Discount Skis, located in Limon, Colorado, offers a huge selection of downhill skis. They pride themselves on providing you with all the information you need and answering any questions about their products, ensuring you only make a purchase you feel confident about. Shop in-store or online.
Christy Sports
Christy Sports currently has a ski clearance sale, which is definitely worth checking out. Another cost-effective option at Christy's is to rent gear for the season, which you can then buy out at the end of the year if you like it! That's exactly what I did my first season out here. While I've since upgraded my skis, this was the perfect move for my first Colorado winter.
Powder7
Powder7 in Golden has some pretty darn good deals on used skis. I actually bought my current pair of skis here, which had probably been used ten times or less when I bought them, and they were new a model year! They even came with bindings, which you love to see.
Larsons Ski & Sport
Larson's is a family-owned business in Wheat Ridge that's been around since the '80s. These guys are knowledgeable and passionate, and they treat their customers the way they'd want to be treated. They also have awesome prices on rentals.
Evo
Evo is currently having an anniversary sale! You can shop deals for up to 50% off. You can shop at the Denver location or online. They also do rentals if you aren't looking to buy just yet.
